A secure tracking system for video program content places a special code (watermark) within the broadcast program, preferably via the user bits of the SMPTE time code already used on virtually all film and video production systems. A registering authority provides proof of a program broadcast by detecting watermarking and fingerprinting on various broadcast media around the world and reporting it back to a central database.
